Screw Romney and his puddinhearted moderate purists. The GOP can kiss my wrinkled ass if they think I'll overlook their behavior and bend over for Romney. Don't like it take it up with the party and you can shove that "Swallow your pride crap where the sun don't shine" Conservatives have been swallowing our pride and accepting moderate scum for far too long when the moderates are the ones who don't make deals with conservatives.

The Michigan Republican Party (MRP) Credentials Committee voted 4-2 last night to give Mitt Romney both of the state's at-large delegates, State Policy Committee Chair Mike Cox told MIRS today.

Cox was one of two "no" votes on the committee which met via telephone, along with attorney Eric Doster The "yes" votes included GOP National Committeeman Saul Anuzis, a Romney supporter, and MRP Chair Bobby Schostak.

That would put the delegate split at 16 for Romney and 14 for Rick Santorum, after each candidate won 14 delegates apiece in those divided by Michigan's 14 congressional districts.

As MIRS first reported on Wednesday, the MRP was delaying a final decision on the delegate split until after consulting with attorneys.

Cox said that according to the MRP rules, Santorum and Romney should each get one of Michigan's two at-large delegates based on their take of the popular vote.

"I supported Mitt, but the vote was clearly wrong," Cox said of the Credentials Committee. "It's kind of like Third World voting. We published rules and then we voted to change the rules."

Your bitterness is a curse on this nation, as you won’t even get Ryan in 8 years, like you could if you would forgive.
